Abstract

The drive for mobility has caused an increase in greenhouse gas emissions, leading to a shift toward the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). These vehicles are powered by efficient electric motors, which offer reduced upkeep and enhanced operation. However, the unstable nature of electricity demand and the proliferation of EV charging equipment providers have posed significant challenges in EV charging. Furthermore, charging interruptions are commonplace, with electrical vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) serving as a mysterious black box for EV owners. By analyzing EVSE and EV data during charging, sensitive signals of charging termination can be discovered. The present research paper aims to investigate endurance data to uncover the root cause of EV charging interruption and to address uncertainties in EV charging.
